The son of one of the cm tiers of the Declaration of Jr dependence, who spent the greater part of his large fortune in redeem ing the pledge he then gave, of his “fortune,life and sacred honor,” to secure the liberties ol Ins C °“ Ofthe career of Gen. Harrison I need not speak _ the history ofthe West, is his history. For forty vears he ha* been identified with its interests, us penis and Us hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished by his ability in the councils of his country, he hail been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. *» During the late war, he was longer in active ser vice than any o'her General officer; he was, per haps, oilener in action than any one ol them, and never sustained a defeat. James Madison, in a special message to C ongress December )8, 1811, s ad, w While it is deeply lamented that so many valu able lives have been lost in ihe action which took place on the 7th ultimo, Congress will see with sal isfaction the dauntless spirit of fortitude vu tor.ous lv displayed by every description of troops engaged, as well as the collected firmness which distinguished their commands on an occasion requiring the ul most exertions of valor and discipline." James Madison in his Message to Congress, No vember, 181*2, said, * fc An ample force from the States ot Kintuckj * Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, is placed, with the addition of a few regulars, under the command of Brigadier General Harrison, who possesses the entire confidence of Ins fellow soldiers, among whom are citizens some of them volunteers in the ranks,not less distinguished by their political sta tions than by their personal merits.” In Mr. Madison’s message of December 1813, the compliment was extended, as follows : “ The success on Lake Erie having opened a pas sage to the territory of the enemy, the officer com manding the Northwestern arms, transferred the war tfurther, and, rapidly pursuing the hostile troops fleeing with thei: savage associates,forced & general action, which quickly terminated in the capture of the British, and dispersion of the savage force. ‘ ‘ 'This result is signally honorable to Major Gen eral Harrison, by whose military talents it urns pre pared." The following tribute of praise was paid to Gen eral Harrison, in 1811, by eleven of the officers who fought under his banner at the battle of Tippeca noe . “Should our country again require our service to oppose a civilized or a savage foe, we should march under General Harrison wiih the most perfect confi dence of victory and fame.” JOEL COOK, K. B. BURTON, NATHAN ADAMS, A. HAWKINS, 11 BUKCHSTEAI), HOSE A BLOOD, JOSIA SN EE LING, O. G. BURTON, C. FULLER, G GOODING, J. D. FOSTER. Extract of a letter from Col. Davis, who was kil led at the battle of Tippecanoe, August 24, 181!: “ I make free to declare, that 1 have imagined there were two military* men in tiie West, and Gem Harrison is the first of the two ” Message of Simon Snyder, Governor cf Penn sylvania, December 10, 1813 “ Already is the brow of the young warrior, Cro ghan, encircled with laurels, and the blessings of thousands of women and . hildreu rescued from the scalping knife ot the ruthless savage ul the wilder ness, and from the still more savage Proctor, rest on Harrison and his gallant array.” In the Legislature of Indiana, on the l2lhNov. 1811, the 8 peakor of the House of Representatives, Gen. VV in Johnston, thus addressed general Harri son. “ Ssir—The House es Representatives of the In diana territory, in their own name, and in behalf of iheir constituents, most cordially reciprocate ihe congratulations of your Excellency on the glorious result ofthe late sanguinary conflict with the Shaw nee Prophet, and the tribes ol Indians confederated with him; when we see displayed in behalf of -our country, not only the consummate abilities of the general, but the heroism of the man ; and when we take into v iew the benefits which rnusi result to that country from those exertions, we cannot, foi a moment, w ithhold oik meed of applause.” legislature of K< ntucky, January 7, 1812. “ Resolved, By the-Senate and House of Repre tativesof the Stateof Kentucky, in the late cam paign against the Indians upon the Wabash, Gov. William Henry Harrison has behaved like a hero, a patriot and a general; and that for his cool, delib erate, skilful and gallant conduct in the battle of Tippecanoe, he will deserve the warmest thanks of his country and his nation Gen. Anthony Way tie, in his Letter to the Secre tary of War, giving an official account of Ins san guinary Indian Battle, in 1792, said ; “My faithful and gallant Lieutenant Harrison rendered the most essential service, by cotnraunica ting my orders in every direction, and by his con duct and bravery, exciting the troops to press for victory.” Resolution directing the madals struck, and,di --c together with the thanks of Congress, pres, - ; to Major General Harrison, and Gov. *hc v, and for other purposes. Resolved , By the Senate ami House of Repre sentatives of the United States of America in Con gress assembled. That the thanks of Congress be, and they are hereby, presented to Major Gen eral William Henry llarnsoi . and Isaac -Shelby, late Gov. of Kentucky, and through them, to the of ficers and men under their command, for their gal lantry and good conduct in defeating the c imbined British and Indian forces under M ajor General Proc tor,on the Thames, in Upper Canada, on 'he fifth day of October, one thousand eight hundred and thirteen, capturing the British army, with their bag age, camp equippage, and artillery ; and that the President ot the United States be requested to cause two gold medals to be struck, emblematic of this triumph, and he presented to General Harrison and Isaac fsbelby, late Gov. of Kentucky. 11. Cf. AY, Speaker of the House o Representatives. John Gaili.ard, President of the Senate, pro tempore. April 4, 1818. —Approved, James Monroe. Gov. Shelby to Mr. Madison, May 16, 1814, says : “ 1 led no hesitation to declare to you that I be • heve Gen Harrison to bt one of the first military characters I ever knew." Col. Richard M. Johnson to Gen. Harrison, July 4, 1813,says ; “ We did not want to serve under cowards or trai tors ; bat under one [Harrison] who had proved him %Stf to be wise, prudent anil brave " Commodore Perry to General Harrison, August 18, 1817,says: “ The prompt changeraacc by you iiithe order of battle on discovering the position of the cm ray, has always appeared to me to have evinced a high DEGREE UK MILITARY TALENT. 1 COOC ir Wil l the venerable Shelby in his general approbation of your conduct in that campaign.’ Honorable Langdon Cheves, on the battle of the Ph i nit s. “ The victory of Harrison, was such as would have secured to a Roman Gtneral in the best days ofthe Republic, the honors oj a triumph I He put an end to the War in (he Uppermost Canada." Sentiments of the Hero of Fort Stephenson, CoL Croghan; *• i desire no plaudits which arc bestowed upon me at the expense ol General Harrison. *• 1 have ft It the w armest attachment for him as a man, and my confidence in him as an able comman der remains unshaken. 1 feci every assurance that he will at all limes do me justice; and nothing could give me more pain than to see his enemies seize upon this occasion to deal out their unfriendly feelings and acrimonious dislike ; and so long as he continue* (as in my humble opinion he h s hither to done) tom ake the wisest arrangements and the most judicious disposition, which the forces under his command will justify, 1 shall not hesitate to unite with tue array m bestowing upon mm iuat con\fence which he so richly m.. Us, and which '.has on no occasion been w ithhold. The Richmond Enquirer said: “G CM Harrison’s letter tells as every thing thal we w ish to know about the officers, except himself He docs justice to every one but Harrison —and the world must therefore dojustice to the man who was too modest to be just to himself.” From Gen. Harrison’s report of the battle of the Thames : “We have suffered greatly for the want of pro visions, and the whole army has sub sister, tbrthf last three days, on raw reek without salt.’ SO” “ In all ages, and in all countries, it has beer observed, that the cultivators of the soil are those who arc the least willing to part with their rights ami submit themselves to the will ol a master. W.m. H Harrison. 30““THE PEOPLE OF THE U. STATES May they ever remember that to preserve their liberties, they must do their own voting and then own fighting VVm II Harrison. “ General Hamson has done more for his coun try, with less compensation tor it, than any man living” President Madison. Ex'Governor Isaac Hill, November 23,1813, in the New Hampshire Patriot said : “ What man lives, whose whole heart and soul is not British, that cannot sincerely rejoice in the late victories of Perry and Harrison, that does not (cel a pride in the valor and patriotism ot site heroes of the West, who have freed a country large as the Empire of Alexander the Great, from the Indian tomahawk and scalping Knife ! If there be such an one, he is a traitor to the country—he possesses the spirit of a murderer.” John M. Niles, late Van Buren candidate for Gov. in Connecticut, in his file of Perry published in 1821, after giving a general biography of Gen- Har rison, said : “Tlie defence of Fort Meigs, and the subsequent capture of the British army, may be fairly consider ed the most brilliant and extraordinary events of the late war.” In alluding to the battle of the Thames, lie said : “It must be conceded that this victory reflected great honor upon the national arms , and upon the troops by whom it was achieved. “ The action, and the movements which preceded it, afforded ample testimony of the judgement and cool intrepidity cl Gen. Harrison; and, indeed, all the events of the campaign support these char actistics ; the disasters attending it having, in no in stance, been imputable to him. “ There are perhaps on record few instances ol such cool and steady intrepidity, on me part ol militia, or a three of this description, as was display ed on this occasion. “ Harrison and Perry left Detroit in i lie Ariel, and arrived at Erie <m the 22d of October. Here they were received with every demonstration of joy and admiration; the discharge of cannon, illuminations Arc. They were hailed as the deliverers of the frontiers.” An Eloquent Record. William Henry Harrison was born in Virginia on the9ih of February, 1773. In 1791, w hen 19 years of age, lie was appointed by Washington an Ensign in our infant army. In 1792, he was promoted lo the rank of Lieu tenant: and in 1793, joined the legion under Gen. Wayne,and in a lew days thereafter, was selected by him as one of his Aids. On the 24th of August, 1794, he distinguished himself in the battle of the Miami, and elicited the most flattering written approbation of Gen Wayne. la 1795, he was made a Captain, ami was placed in command of Fort \\ ashington. In 1797, he was appointed, by President Adams, Secretary of the North-western Territory and ex officio Lt. Governor ~ In 1793, lie was chosen a delegate to Cnngreis. in 1801, he was appointed Governor of Indiana, and in tiie same year, President Jefferson appointed him sole Commissioner for treating with the In dians. In 1809, he was re-appointed Governor of Indi ana by Madison. On the 7th November, 1811, he gained the great victory of TIPPECANOE On the 11th September, 1312, he was appointed by Madison, Commander-in-Chief of the North western army. On the Ist May, 1813, the scige of Fort Meigs commenced—lasted five days, and was terminated by the brilliant and successful sortie of Gen. Har rison. On the 31st July, 1813, the battle of Fort Sto phenson occurred. On the sth October, 1813, he gained the splendid victory of the THAMES, over the Briiish and In dians under Proctor. In 1814, ho Tv as appointed by .Madison one of the Commissioners to real with the Indians, and in tlie same year, with his colleague s Gov. Shelby* and Gen. Cass, concluded the celebrated treaty of Greenville. In 1815, lie was again appointed such Commis sioner, with Gdii. Mc Arthur and Mr. Graham, and I negotiated a treaty at Detroit. In 181 G, ho was elected a member of Congress, j In January, 1818, he introduced a resolution in honor of -Kosciusko, and supported it in one of the most feeling, classical and eloquent speeches ever delivered in the House of Representatives. In 1819, he was elected a member of the Ohio Senate Ip. 1824, he was elected Senator in Congress, and was appointed, in 1825, Chairman of the .Mili tary Committee,in place of Gen. Jackson, who had resigned In 1827, he was appointed Minister to Colombia, and, in 1829, wrote his immortal lelier to Bolivar the deliverer of South America. Os him Col. Johnson (Vice President) thus spoke in the House of Representatives whilst a inembci of that body : “Os the career of Gen. Harrison, I need no( speak—the history of the west is his history Foi 1 forty years he has been identified with its interests | its perils, and ns hopes. Universally beloved ir j the walks of peace,and distinguished by his ability jin the councils of his country,he has been yet mart j illustriously distinguished in the field. During the | late war, tie was Huger in actual service than any j other General Officer; he was, perhaps, oltner ir action than any one of them, and never sustained a defeat." Bucii is the man, who, still enjoying his untar nished lame and glory*, and standing on a proud and lofty eminence where neither malice er envy can assail him, is now summoned by his gratefui countrymen to leave the quiet walks of private life to guide tiie councils of the nation, “and delivei the country from the dangers which encompass it.’ He will be her deliverer !
